Answer: there are three different methods of determining the age of a landform.

1 radiation measurement

2 stratigraphic superposition

3 the fossil record

by using these or a combination of these they determined that the earth is around 4.6 billion years old. and this is where the big bang theory comes into play.

To determine the relative age of different rocks, geologists start with the assumption that unless something has happened, in a sequence of sedimentary rock layers, the newer rock layers will be on top of older ones. This is called the Rule of Superposition. ... With absolute age dating, you get a real age in actual years

Calculate the mole fraction of each component in a solution with 6.87 g of sodium chloride (NaCl) dissolved in 65.2 g of water.
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

mole fraction of NaCl = 0.03145.

mole fraction of water = 0.9686.

Explanation:

  • Mole fraction is an expression of the concentration of a solution or mixture.
  • It is equal to the moles of one component divided by the total moles in the solution or mixture.
  • The summation of mole fraction of all mixture components = 1.

mole fraction of NaCl = (no. of moles of NaCl) / (total no. of moles).

<em>no. of moles of NaCl = mass/molar mass </em>= (6.87 g)/(58.44 g/mol) = 0.1176 mol.

<em>no. of moles of water = mass/molar mass</em> = (65.2 g)/(18.0 g/mol) = <em>3.622 mol.</em>

<em></em>

∴ mole fraction of NaCl = (no. of moles of NaCl) / (total no. of moles) = (0.1176 mol)/(0.1176 mol + 3.622 mol) = 0.03145.

<em>∵ mole fraction of NaCl + mole fraction of water = 1.0.</em>

∴ mole fraction of water = 1.0 - mole fraction of NaCl = 1.0 - 0.03145 = 0.9686.

What is the overall charge of an ion Pat has 12 protons 10 electrons and 14 neutrons
Sav [38]

Answer:

The over all charge on atom will be +2.

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

For example

X is the element having 12 protons  10 electrons and 14 neutrons.

The number of protons and electrons are not equal which means two electrons are lose by the given atom and it is present in the form of cation.

The over all charge on atom will be +2.
